...as a plug that can go into the side fin boxes on a longboard so you can convert from a 3 fin setup to a single fin? I swear I think I've seen guys out with setups like that but I couldn't find anything searching online. I probably just suck at searching tho :lol:

btw the side biters on my log are futures....dunno if you needed to know that but there it is just in case

On my fish, which has three Future fin boxes, I often run with only two fins and leave the middle one empty for days when I want it a bit loose. No problem. 8)

I thought it would somehow be no good to just leave the open fin box, but I guess it's not important. Thanks

with most boards water gets into the fin boxes anyway, just make sure not to fill it up with stones and mud
